Speed in a crypto swap comes down to two things: how fast the service lets you start, and how fast the blockchain confirms your deposit. LarkSwap keeps the first part as short as possible — no account, no verification queue, no email to confirm — so the only waiting left is the blockchain itself.
From zero to order in under a minute
- Choose what you send and what you want to receive.
- Paste the wallet address where you want your coins.
- Press the button: you get the deposit address and the exact amount to send.
That’s it. The rate is locked for 30 minutes from that moment, so you don’t have to rush or worry about the price while you open your wallet.
How long each network takes
Once you send, the clock depends on the network. These are typical times for a deposit to confirm:
| Network | Typical confirmation |
|---|---|
| XRP Ledger, TON, Solana | Seconds |
| Tron (TRC20), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) | About 1–3 minutes |
| Polygon, Arbitrum, Base | About 1–3 minutes |
| Ethereum (ERC20) | A few minutes |
| Litecoin, Cardano | About 5–15 minutes |
| Bitcoin | About 10–30 minutes (block time varies) |
As soon as the deposit is confirmed, we send your coins. Your order page shows each step — deposit seen, confirmed, sent — and the payout transaction hash, so you can follow it on a block explorer.
Tips for the fastest result
- Send from a fast network. If you hold USDT on several chains, sending on Tron, Solana or BNB Smart Chain confirms much sooner than Ethereum. Moving SOL to USDT or XRP to USDT is usually done in minutes.
- Send the exact amount. The order is matched by amount; sending a different figure means a manual check and extra time.
- Mind exchange withdrawals. Some exchanges hold withdrawals for review before broadcasting them. That delay happens before the coins reach the blockchain.
- Bitcoin with a fair fee. If you send BTC with a very low network fee, it can wait in the mempool. A normal fee keeps a BTC to USDT swap in the usual 10–30 minute range.
Fast, without surprises
Quick is only useful if the price holds. With a fixed rate for 30 minutes and a flat 0.4% service fee, what you see when you create the order is what you get. If cost matters most, read about our low fee crypto exchange; if you prefer to stay private, see how to swap with no sign-up.
Popular quick swaps: USDT to BTC, ETH to BTC, USDT TRC20 to ERC20.
{F} to {T}: your questions answered
How long does a swap take on LarkSwap?
Usually 5 to 30 minutes in total. Most of that time is the blockchain confirming your deposit; we send your coins as soon as it confirms.
Which coins swap the fastest?
Coins on fast networks such as XRP, Solana, TON, Tron and BNB Smart Chain confirm in seconds or a couple of minutes. Bitcoin takes longer because of its block time.
What if my deposit takes longer than 30 minutes?
The rate is locked for 30 minutes for you to send. If the payment is broadcast on time but confirms later, we still process it; if it is sent late, we review it and either complete it at the current rate or refund you.
How do I know my swap is progressing?
Your order page updates by itself: deposit seen, confirmed and sent, with the transaction hash of the payout.
Do I need to verify my identity first?
No. There is no account or sign-up, so nothing slows you down before the swap starts.
